Announcements
November Tuition is due!
Reminder for all class days-- Class begins at 9:00. Please help me out and avoid dropping off too early. My helpers don't arrive before 8:45, and drop-offs seem to be showing up earlier and earlier each week. I promise, I will schedule free times for kids to play during the class day... no need to arrive early to play! :-) Stated drop-off time is between 8:45 & 9:00. Thanks!
Our last day of class before Thanksgiving Break is Monday, 11/23.
As stated in last week's Covid Report, we will be ZOOMING in the week after Thanksgiving! Some people will be visiting, traveling, eating with families, and this will give us a nice buffer before returning to class! I am doing my best to help our program prevent the dreaded "Two Week Quarantine".... especially during the holidays!
Farm Fusion
- We learned about adjectives in class. The afternoon class also learned about similes and onomatopoeias. Try to use some of these in this week's story!
- Here are some story ideas to get you thinking!
- The goats were out this week! Write a story about a run-away goat!
- I told you that I put lights on timers out in every single chicken coop to try to get the hens to lay eggs. At 4:00 in the morning, it looks like Las Vegas out there! See if you can use that in a story! :-)
- What do you think the animals would be thankful for? Choose an animal and write about it from their point of view.
- Come up with your own story!
Handwriting - Parents, especially of students in cursive... please help with at-home assignments! The goal isn't to get it done, but to use this time to improve, learn new letter formation, and fix bad habits. Thanks!
